Density can be defined in terms of the mass of a substance present in a certain volume.
i.e. Density = Mass/ volume
It helps classify and identify matter due to the following reasons:
1) Density is an intensive property. For a given substance the density will remain the same irrespective of the amount in which it is present.
For example: The density of Aluminum (Al) = 2.7 g/cm3. This value is a constant at a certain temperature and pressure. Therefore, the density will remain the same for 1 kilogram or 1 mg of Al
2) Different elements/compounds have different values of densities which is characteristic of that substance
Answer:
Sedimentary rock, rock formed at or near Earth's surface by the accumulation and lithification of sediment by the precipitation from solution at normal surface temperatures
Explanation:
Answer: hydroxide ions
Explanation:
According to the Arrhenius concept, an acid is a substance that ionizes in the water to give hydronium ion or hydrogen ion and a bases is a substance that ionizes in the water to give hydroxide ion .
According to the Bronsted Lowry conjugate acid-base theory, an acid is defined as a substance which donates protons and a base is defined as a substance which accepts protons.
According to the Lewis concept, an acid is defined as a substance that accepts electron pairs and base is defined as a substance which donates electron pairs.
As KOH can give hydroxide ions on dissociation , it is considered as arrhenius base.
